Wild opening paragraph, maybe you shouldn't be the one reviewing a Warriors game then

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Just so we’re all on the same page.

There’s a special place in hell for anyone who can watch this and feel joy.

And for the ones just standing there doing nothing, you’re not much better…

Best treat of the night.

Canada says “elbows up.” I say for America, “cameras out.” Film every last one of these brutal criminals. We will need the evidence for their trials.

I don’t know why some people struggle with the idea that other folks experience life differently. What you find tedious, someone else cherishes as ritual or routine. This is basic people stuff y’all.

one of the most deeply infuriating aspects of american politics is close to half of americans would love if 20% of the country starved to death

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

It seems my comment on The Game Theorists video got flagged as spam, so here you go. This is what I would add to the video!

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

I do believe in an everyday sort of magic - the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art & the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we’re alone.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Amazing what happens when you give the guy a plane
